Strong history, but changing. Old ways of working - Avis employé Senior Administrative Associate Genentech

Too much of the “Genentech nice culture,” office politics, places more value on how one does something rather than the impact of that outcome. It really depends on what part of the company/organization you’re a part of. I think a lot of leadership is well-meaning, while some are truly stuck in the traditions and company “culture fit” that are driving away talented, innovative people. Work life balance varies greatly depending on your function or manager. If your manager is old school, working from home is allowed but frowned upon, so what good does that do?
